Handsome Antique English Cut Crystal & Sterling Silver Inkwell - 1899

A very handsome inkwell made from a heavy piece of crystal cut in the ever-popular hobnail design with a star-cut to the underside.

The collar and hinged lid is made from English sterling silver with a full hallmark for the highly collectible Chester assay office and the year 1899, making this a true Victorian example. The makers mark is also present for the silversmith, King & Sons.
